Elevating the cigar, retail, and lounge experience in the greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky region, Cigars International today announced the launch of its fourteenth superstore at Newport on the Levee, with a grand opening celebration to follow next month. The new location delivers a best-in-class destination for cigar aficionados and newcomers alike. Similar to its previous superstores, Cigars International’s Newport location will service cigar lovers with both retail and lifestyle experiences through onsite events, tastings, pairings, live music, and more.
The 5,700-square-foot space features a walk-in humidor housing hundreds of premium cigar brands, including samplers, boutique brands, exclusive selections, and limited-edition releases alongside accessories, including humidors, lighters, and cutters. The lounge area is outfitted with comfortable seating, soft lighting, and climate and air-ventilation systems tailored for cigar comfort. In addition, Cigars International Newport features a full-service bar offering craft spirits along with premium coffee and pairings, as well as an outdoor patio.
“We are thrilled to bring the Cigars International experience to Newport on the Levee,” says Scott Vasko, VP of Retail for Cigars International. “This store is not just about buying great cigars — it’s about community, relaxation, and creating memories. Our team has created a space where you can discover your next favorite cigar, unwind with friends, and enjoy the company of fellow cigar enthusiasts.”
The Cigars International Newport grand opening event will take place on Saturday, December 6, beginning at 9 a.m. with a ribbon-cutting ceremony with local dignitaries. Afterwards the public is invited to explore the store, and the first 500 guests will receive a curated gift pack. Festivities will continue throughout the day with live music, special tastings, giveaways, and exclusive cigar discounts.
Cigars International Newport is located at One Levee Way, P-106, Newport, KY 41071.
